This made a great healthy breakfast. I used rindless very lean bacon, fresh silverbeet from the garden but forgot to put on the tomatoes. For the hollandaise I used mozzarella and cooked in the microwave and thickened with a little cornflour. Thank you Nancy's Pantry for a tasty breakfast, made for Make My Recipe - Edition 16.

This is a 5* breakfast all the way. It was quick and easy and oh so flavorful. This is so good. Mere words cannot express my delight with this dish. Made exactly as written, but used a crumpet instead of a muffin, as I was out. Thank you for sharing a recipe that I have placed in my Favorites Cookbook for 2012. Kudos to you.

Yummy breakfast and loved the mock sauce. I did take some liberties to what I had on hand. I prefer scrambled eggs over the poached and I didn't have the Canadian bacon so subbed regular bacon. I used a lemon flavored Chobani yorgurt for the sauce and it added some extra lemon flavor, yum!! Thanks for sharing the recipe. Will make more often without all the guilt, lol!! Made for Holiday Tag Game.
